A SIRENS CALL


 

Enjoyable yet hollow is how it goes

Your life doesn't seem to grow 

With each day you seem to die away

Getting away is the only way to live 

 

The exit is right in front of me 

But im blind when I hear it

Im drawn to it

Promising me all i ever wanted 

Protection

Isolation

Relaxation

Reservation 

 

Why cant i leave 

Everybody else has and i can too

But maybe it can wait

No one left quickly, right?

I have plenty of time

 

Its all i wanted 

All i needed

Im only saying this now

But why do i feel like Ive said this before?
